is this a lie about what mohammed said?
Mohammed said: "Circumcision is a sunnah for the men and makrumah for the women". The term sunnah here means that it is conform to the tradition of Mohammed himself, or simply a custom at the time of Mohammed. The term makrumah is far from clear but we can translate it into a honorable deed.

ok i'm a coward. here is the question is circumcision mandatory in Islam/Muslims?
2006-11-19 14:21:56 · update #2
In Islam circumcision is not mandatory.
But because Islam says that one must not have even a drop of urine on a person (outside the organs of course) when praying five times a day, then it would be hard for those uncircumcised people as they need to clean their "thing" every prayer time.
So it is not mandatory, but highly highly highly highly highly recommended.

Mohamnd Ideas came directly from the holy bible. There is some truth in the koran mixed with a bunch of lies.

Sunnah is not only referred to Prophet Mohammad but also all Prophets before him.

There are two issue here: First this is not a question. Second you are promoting a cause.
Next time have the courage to state what you want to ask.
